automounting cifs folder

Hello,
I have searched the forum but I can't find what I need.
I have to mount an NTFS folder onto 2 redhat OS based servers, from an auto table set on an AIX 4.3.3 NIS server.
I have the auto.xxx table set with some other UNIX share folders, for example :

toto unixsrv:/fold1/&

I'd like to automount \\winsrv\fold1 onto redhat1:/div/fold1

- How do I change my auto.xxx table to set \\winsrv\fold1 ?

fold1 winsrv:/div/& is correct or not ?
- what options do I have to set to enable the CIFS mounting ? can I set them in the auto.xxx table ?

NB: the auto.xxx table is pushed by NIS onto redhat NIS clients, and entries are automounted on /div directeory
Thanks a lot for your help

Name
       rmf - remove folder

Syntax
       rmf [ +folder ] [ -help ] [ -[no]interactive ]

Description
       The  command  removes all of the messages within the current folder, and then removes the folder itself.  If there are any files within the
       folder which are not part of MH, they are not removed, and an error message is displayed.

       You can specify a folder other than the current folder by using the +folder argument.  If you do not specify a folder, and cannot find  the
       current folder, asks you whether you want to delete instead.

       If the current folder is removed, it makes current.

       Note that the command irreversibly deletes messages that do not have other links, so use it with caution.

       If  the folder being removed is a sub-folder, the parent folder becomes the new current folder, and tells you that this has happened.  This
       provides an easy mechanism for selecting a set of messages, operating on the list, then removing the list  and  returning  to  the  current
       folder from which the list was extracted.

       Using to delete a read-only folder deletes the private sequence and current message information from the file, without affecting the folder
       itself.	If you have sub-folders within a folder, you must delete all the sub-folders before you can delete the folder itself.

Options
       -help	 Prints a list of the valid options to this command.

       -interactive
       -nointeractive
		 Asks for confirmation before deleting a folder.  By default, deletes a folder and its messages without asking	for  confirmation.
		 If  you  specify  the	-interactive option, asks if you are sure before deleting the folder.  You are advised to use this option,
		 since when deletes a folder its contents are lost irretrievably.

Examples
       This example shows how asks for confirmation when the -interactive option is used:
       % rmf -interactive +test
       Remove folder "test"? y
